Wrekon unveil their own venue at Glastonbury Festival

Scrap metal sculpture crew Wrekon have revealed that they will have their own venue at this month's Glastonbury Festival called The Lunar Sea Lounge.

Wrekon have been working for years on the festy scene showing off their scrap sculpture (not only in the UK but also at an international level) but this is the first time they've been let loose with their own venue at the Pilton Festival.

The Lunar Sea Lounge will be situated in the Arcadia field at the Festival and has an audience capacity of 1000. The venue will have a retro space age theme - think The Jetsons meet the Mysterons on the Lost In Space film set! Towering sci-fi structures, rocket ships and robot sculptures will make it an unmissable and memorable addition to Arcadia.

The Lunar Sea Lounge will have both a stage and a bar, serving up drinks and an eclectic musical mix of punk, ska and festival favourites. The Lunar Sea Lounge will also be giving festival goers a chance to unleash their inner rock star: hosting daily live punk karaoke sessions with popular punk cover band Fat, Drunk and Stupid and they're planning a special celebrity edition on Saturday night where members of the audience may be lucky enough to sing with a star!

eFestivals' Glastonbury World Cup 2010 in support of WaterAid

Once again this summer players, mainly members of the eFestivals forums, are coming together to be part of the England vs The Rest Of The World football match, which will be raising funds for WaterAid on Thursday 24th June at the Festival.

Festival organiser Michael Eavis has challenged the event to raise £6000 for WaterAid and thus provide enough money to provide the cost of building three water wells. Water is something that we all take for granted but other people aren't so lucky.

The event begins at 1pm at the Pyramid Stage field with prematch entertainment from Hobo Jones & the Junkyard Dogs who will be doing a 40 minute set with the World Cup match will start after that.

WaterAid will again be on hand with collection buckets at the game, and people who can't make it to the event can make an online donation at http://www.justgiving.com/glastoworldcup2010.
